RJ Davis Named Sporting News Preseason All-American

Posted Nov 11, 2024
First Team: R.J. Davis, North Carolina - He was here last year, and there’s no reason to believe he’s going to get worse. Davis produced four games of 30 or more points in 2023-24 and 11 games of 25 or more. He was held to single-figure scoring just twice, and the Tar Heels won both of those games. It’s likely Davis will use his extra season wisely. (Sporting News)
